AgnathaX is different, in that it utilizes simulated central and peripheral nervous systems for more robust performance. Inspired by the sinuous lamprey fish, AgnathaX was developed via a ...

An international team of researchers has discovered a new component of the peripheral nervous system that acts by increasing energy metabolism in the body. The finding paves the way for the ...

Your brain gets all the glory while your other nervous system, the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) toils away in thankless obscurity. What’s the PNS? Oh, merely the neurons that live outside of your ...

The sea lamprey looks like it’s from another planet, but this ancient creature has a surprising amount in common with humans ...

Injured axons instruct Schwann cells to build specialized actin spheres to break down and remove axon fragments, thereby starting the regeneration process. Damaged peripheral nerves can regenerate ...

Research headed by teams at the University of Rochester Center for Translational Medicine and the University of Copenhagen describes for the first time how a spreading wave of disruption and the flow ...

Researchers have discovered that an FDA-approved drug acts on support cells in the central nervous system to encourage sensory neurons to regrow after injury. A spinal cord injury damages the lines of ...

Neurologists are doctors who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of various disorders of the brain, spinal cord, and nervous system as a whole. The human nervous system consists of the central ...

A new study published in Nature Neuroscience provides evidence that aging and injury lead to the buildup of senescent neurons—commonly referred to as “zombie” cells—in the peripheral nervous system.

Your brain gets all the glory while your other nervous system, the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) toils away in thankless obscurity. What’s the PNS? Oh, merely the neurons that live outside of your ...
